Smyrna 2
Have you ever witnessed this phenomenon among Christians to seek out someone with “the anointing?”
Well, how would you like to be the one with the anointing? The truth is, if you belong to Christ, you are anointed. One thing I did not mention yesterday is that myrrh was used in the sacred anointing oil the priests used in the temple. Everything in the temple had to be anointed with this oil and anyone or anything that touched any of these articles were made holy.
But that was the earthly tabernacle or temple. What about the heavenly tabernacle? Where is that and where are all these beautiful articles that were in the tabernacle? Do we still have a sacred anointing oil?
As we know, Moses’ tabernacle and the temple no longer exist on earth. There is a new temple, and this one is called the body of the Lord. This temple is made up of living stones (temples) and all these living stones collectively, with the Lord, make up His BODY or His temple.
So, let me make some trouble, just because I can 😊.
1st temple Solomon
2nd temple Nehemiah
3rd temple Church
Why is everyone looking for a third temple when God already has His third and final temple? Jesus clearly said that he would tear down the earthly one and rebuild it in three days. This infuriated the religious leaders. But Jesus was talking about His physical body. He prophesied the end of the earthly temple and the beginning of the heavenly temple. I don’t think He has changed His mind! What if Ezekiel’s temple is spiritual and not physical?
The NEW Temple, just like the NEW Creation, and the NEW Jerusalem, and the NEW Heavens and Earth, is YOU as an individual and US as a collective IN HIM. Done and dusted! Jesus is NOT dealing with an earthly kingdom; He is dealing with a heavenly kingdom. He is NOT dealing with earthly governments, rulers and authorities, He is dealing with principalities, powers, rulers and authorities in the HEAVENLY REALMS.
And guess who He is using to establish His kingdom!
My passion is to enlighten every person to this divine mystery. It was hidden for ages past until now, and kept a secret in the heart of God, the Creator of all. The purpose of this was to unveil before every throne and rank of angelic orders in the heavenly realm God’s full and diverse wisdom through the Church. This perfectly wise plan was destined from eternal ages and fulfilled completely in our Lord Jesus Christ, so that now we have free access as kings before the Father because of our complete confidence in Christ’s faithfulness. (Eph 39-12 TPT)
Can you see how magnificent the CHURCH is? God is revealing the full manifest glory of His rule and government to the angelic orders, both good and evil, through you and me! What an awesome Father we have. How great is His confidence and faith in us! How great is His eternal purpose and plan for us!
Here is the beauty. Jesus eternal reign over all began when He rose from the dead. It was done and dusted, forever settled in the eternal past, but in due time the Father revealed the Son on earth. His death, or suffering, resulted in the resurrection not only of His body, but gave birth to A NEW CREATION. Nothing like this new creation has ever existed before and nothing will ever be exalted above it. And you are a part of this new creation. You are a child of God, born from heaven, a being that never existed until the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. And now, just as a baby develops from one initial cell into a perfect human being, you have been born of the original seed of God. In the power of the Holy Spirit you are being formed and fashioned into the perfection of a child of His. You belong to no one else but Him. You were not anyone else’s plan but His. Everything about you is about Him.
You are an amazing, fantastic, awesome, and unimaginable glorious creation!
Have an awesome day!
